Concept Mapping and Drupal Integration for OurDigitalCulture

—

Roberto Pires Silva

OurDigitalCulture is a digital learning platform that promotes the individual and collaborative creation and sharing of stories with the aid of multimedia. The purpose of this project is to build a new Drupal based system for OurDigitalCulture. The new platform had to provide a semantic structure that enabled the system to represent collaborative stories as concept maps.
The system offers users a personal space where they can share personal stories and experiences through a blog and a profile page as well as a social space where they can write stories through collaborative blogs, forums, debates and a SchoolPedia.
The evaluation performed proves that the majority of the features presented by the current system were implemented, making this project a feasible solution for replacing it.
